Hi again. Just want to report some stuff:
. As the documentation indicates, I added "\property
Staff.VoltaBracket = \turnOff" to all but one of my voices to prevent
multiple redundant alternative brackets. This works fine, but I get
the following warning from lily:
warning: Can't find property type-check for `VoltaBracket'.
Perhaps you made a typing error? Doing assignment anyway.
. Looking at the ly2dvi source, I found that there is a "dedication"
field that you can use in the header. However, this is not in the
documentation. (At least not at
http://lilypond.org/development/Documentation/user/out-www/lilypond/ly2dvi.html.)
. Mads, I'm having trouble with your Score.breakAlignOrder suggestion.
If I put it near the beginning of my file, then I get the correct
result for the clef, but the ordering and "look" of other things is
wrong. (E.g., key signatures appear before clefs.) Also, I get:
warning: unknown spacing pair `Key_item', `Clef_item'. So, I thought
to put the Score.breakAlignOrder property directive as close to where
I needed it as possible. But when I do this, I get:
----------------------------------------------------------------------
ERROR: In procedure memq:
ERROR: Wrong type argument in position 2: #<freed cell 0x40257088; GC
missed a reference>
error: lilypond: command exited with value 512
Traceback (innermost last):

----------------------------------------------------------------------
Is the problem obvious? Operator error? If not, should I send you my
input?
Minor comment: the version numbers on
http://lilypond.org/development/Documentation/topdocs/out-www/INSTALL.html#download-source
are out of date. (They refer to 1.2 and 1.3.)
One more question: The brackets for alternative endings seem to be
placed independently. That is, if one of the endings has higher
notes, its bracket will appear higher than the other. Is there a way
to force both brackets to be placed at the same vertical level (the
higher of the two)?
thanks,
david
